its a regular incandescent bulb switch. I played around with it and finally figured it out. I spliced it into the 87 termanel wire and changed the wires around at the switch until it worked. its hooked to the power and the ground. the accessories termanal is not used. if you hook it up the the...

Sorry about that I'm just confused myself. Basically I'm wondering 1) where do I connect the wire for the switch at the relay 2) where on a normal illuminated rocker switch with 3 prongs (ground, 12v, accessories) do I plug in the wire from relay. I understand how to install the relay just not...

Anyone out there? lol just looking for a little bit of advice on the subject so I can finish the install. Thanks again

okay i understand the wiring diagram the only thing im confused on is the switch. Now is the switch just grounding out the 87 terminal? 87 runs to fan but in the middle of 87 is basically a 3 way and runs to switch, and when switch is on it provides the ground? is this right?

Okay that's what I figured so I'll just order a shim kit and new bearings. That way I can just add shims then press bearings on instead of destroying the rear end. Thanks again guys

Yes I know I should of added .003 to each side but I didn't have any shims smaller then .010 and when I set it up I used brand new bearings and honed them out and I had to use a 2 or 3 lb dead blow hammer to each side of the carrier with 8-10 hits to get it in there and then a 24 inch pry bar...

Okay so I had everything set and ready to go. I installed the new carrier bearings and put the carrier back in and now it's loose fitting. And backlash is real close around .006 I did not add any extra shims after because I originally had the pound it in with a dead blow hammer. Can I run it...

Ohhh didn't know that. Thanks for the info. I figured they were all the same or some close varation.

The inner pinion bearing should be your brand new bearing pressed on. You don't need a set up bearing. Of you have any questions at all ask! These guys here know there stuff. They will make sure your on the right path. And thank you I will check out Yukon sit and get the specs.

Okay, thank you. I thought you added a few thousandth to each side of carrier just wasn't sure how much. As for the tools, I have everything thanks to amazon lol when I built the house 30. I read somewhere it's 20-40 inch pounds for pinion and around 10 inch pounds for carrier so 30-50 inch...

Thanks but I definitely couldnt of done it with out all your guys help. For my first diff builds I would say it went well. And it was fun most of the time. Lol

Perfect! Thanks now time to find pinion preload specs and carrier preload specs and put it all back together! Unless you guys know them?

YES! Thank you guys a ton. No i can finally finish it and start wheeling. Ohhhhhhh one more thing, do I need that stepped slinger behind the inner pinion bearing cup? There wasn't one in there when I disassembled it. But I have one in my rebuild kit. Should I use it? I know that if I do use it I...

Im still new to this but this looks better right? i think it looks good but i dont know what im doing :) back lash is .0055"-.006" (more .006" than .0055") and added .002" to pinion depth. The pinion depth is now .0475" up from .0455". So how are we looking? "]

Nice OK know I don't have any .005 I'm going to have to do some math to figure out the next combo of shims. I will get it tho. I'll do that tonight.
